Trust No One
03:00

The alarm rings so I change the time and go back to sleep.
I do this every day I don't know why I don't know why I thought things would change.
I had such high hopes but you always had other plans.
It seems pointless to resist so I'm waving, I'm waving the white flag.
When will you say that everything’s ok?
When will I learn to trust you?
When can I learn to trust you?
I don't think I can ever trust you.
The phone rings and it’s just one of my other friends.
Haven’t heard from you in awhile and just want to know where we stand.
You were special to me but sometimes life just interferes.
But what I don't understand is why you why you couldn't tell me the truth
When will you say that everything’s ok?
When will I learn to trust you?
When can I learn to trust you?
When will the darkness finally fade away?
When will I learn to trust you?
When can I learn to trust you?
I don't think I can ever trust you.

Better Than Nothing
02:36
|
|||
Cornered the market back in 92
everything young and nothing to lose
A heart gone static or it's beating slow
now given up on the radio
And better than nothing
Daisy-chained-riot couldn't rock this out
looking back you can have your doubt
if it's over, it's over, look out below
revenge is sweet, it's sweet, sweet but slow
It's better than nothing
Last call to jump on the wagon route
infinite demand for the authentic crowd
The pulse falls silent, death from below
Frontier on fire? whoever needs to know?

Always Made Up
03:18
|

And the make-up
wear the face down
if you want it you can leave now
Always made up
never let down
if you want to you can't leave now
you can leave now
Never made up
always top down
gift of plenty in your hands now
Always made up
never let down
if you want to you can't leave now
you can leave now
Lying in wait, ride the face of some wave gone wrong
Playing while you pay through the vein 'til the heartache's gone
Always made up
Always top down
Never face it
It's always fake now

Reflection
03:13
|

Old pictures scattered all over my living floor.
Memories of the person I was before.
Where’d she go?
Seemed like only yesterday.
So eager to grow.
So many years have passed by since those days.
Am I the person that I thought I’d turn out to be?
Where’d she go?
Seemed like only yesterday.
So eager to grow.
Where’d the time go, and when did I get so old?
Where did she go?
Why does it have to be this way?
Where’d she go?
Where’d I go?

see it clear from far away
better vision the lens distorts you
barrel, prism, refracted light
will not matter into the night
the things you made and love will haunt you
ghosts of songwriting's past
a permanence that lasts
an empty vessel you're poured into
shapeless form for housing, pointless
painted and glued back out of place
holy sign of inevitable decay
the things you made and love will haunt you
ghosts of songwriting's past
a permanence that lasts
ghosts of songwriting's past

Someday, Maybe
03:47
|
|||
A piece of the afternoon
but I'm not ready to leave
There's too much time at home
and none of it's for me
I want to, I don't
can now it be past the end?
But the bond of blood and blood spilled
it hurts to pretend
that I love you
or you me
When you're not here
I'm not as lonely
'cause I've been thinking
who will love me?
and I've been dreaming
someday, maybe
Well I've been thinking
that you'd love me
And I've been dreaming
about him lately
'cause I've been thinking
who will love me?
And I'm still dreaming
someday, maybe

Magnetic North
03:16
|
|||
Corpus Christi and a headache for miles
the disaster you can’t ignore
Empty promises twice broken
by the shift of magnetic North
Standing in the way
of the impending cavalcade
It’s all you know, you know, you know,
you know about me
Highway tortoise, buckshot markers
the pressure front on your mind
Salted scars from deserts pasts
now there’s condensation in the line

So come on down, everyone's ready,
the car's still running outside,
with the radio up too loud
'cuz we're driving, we're driving all night
I've waited, I've waited, I've waited, I've waited....
knowing that things wouldn't change
everything that I thought that I wanted
now I can't even hear it the same.
See you when you slip through the light
All you lose is the rest of your life
Teenage hearts are breaking tonight
our teenage hearts are breaking tonight
Come alone, November cold
trees stripped bare and back then
canceled plans declare
"I'm never counting on them again"
I've waited, I've waited, I've waited, I've waited....
playing with the record on low
and the closest we'd ever be again
is the needle on the stereo.
See you when you slip through the light
All you lose is the rest of your life
Teenage hearts are breaking tonight
our teenage hearts are breaking tonight
Teenage hearts are breaking tonight...
